  1. What features do you hope the Fathom might have?

    I honestly wouldn't say no to the same instrument panel they use in the Expedition.
  2. Tin Foil Hat Post

    Yeah, I think the whole point of the UEV model is to reduce construction and part costs. That allows Ford to decrease their labor expense per vehicle. I also believe you are onto something that Ford is banking on subscriptions to make up their profit margin. A quick AI search shows that Ford...
  3. What features do you hope the Fathom might have?

    Another option: Bed cover with integrated solar panel to help add a little charge on sunny days.

    I considered this one too. 3555 might be a reference to a 3500 tow rating. Also, given that airport codes are supposed to be three characters, I wonder if the "SD" and "SLO" are hinting at trims at launch.
  5. Tin Foil Hat Post

    Put on your tin foil hats. Yes, I am aware this is nutty, but part of the fun of not knowing is trying to guess the truth. If you go to the hidden barcode site and watch the middle video, you will see the image below show up on a few frames out of nowhere. It's short enough that it could be...
  6. What features do you hope the Fathom might have?

    Yes, I am aware that what I want will be more than $30K. The whole "$20K" Maverick thing never bothered me because I went with a Lariat Lux 4K. I've become hoity-toity as I've gotten older...
  7. Any wagers on BlueCruise - 3 years or 90 days ?

    I would be curious to know how many of those accidents are due to BlueCruise turning off unexpectedly while the driver isn't paying attention. There is a weird spot on the Florida Turnpike where BlueCruise turns off for a quarter of a mile for some reason.
  8. What features do you hope the Fathom might have?

    My must-haves, or else I keep my Maverick: BlueCruise A bold blue paint (not pastel blue) Vented seats Trim on par with or better than Maverick Lariat 360 cameras The ability to turn off one-pedal. I have too much muscle memory coasting by taking my foot off the gas. My unlikely wishes: A...
  9. Any wagers on BlueCruise - 3 years or 90 days ?

    BlueCruise hardware is standard on the Expedition, and it only came with a 90-day trial by default (though there was an option to get the 7-year plan at the factory). I can see Ford offering a home install as an option, but not standard. I think they will go the Tesla route and just include a...
  10. It is not Ranchero. It is Ford Fathom™. $28,350 Starting Price

    If the only color options are pastel, my daughter has already offered to help wrap it.
  11. It is not Ranchero. It is Ford Fathom™. $28,350 Starting Price

    Ford's reference to a standard battery hints at a larger battery. So, I think there will be options. That said, fewer options also mean that Ford can crank these out in a hurry with fewer delays due to parts shortages needed to build the various trims. I just hope they offer some decent paint...
  12. Two Fathom EVs spotted @ Tesla supercharging station in California

    Not sure he is only 5'8". I'm 5'8" and my Maverick comes up to my eye level. I don't think what's in the background is a Fathom. On the right side, it looks SUV-shaped, like an Escape or Mach-E, which are both also Maverick height.
  13. Introductions & Welcome Thread đź‘‹

    I'm Bob, a regular on MTC. So far, Fathom has been checking all my boxes. I wanted Maverick-sized and BlueCruise. If Ford adds ventilated seats for these Alabama summers with a healthy range, my Maverick might have to move on. So, I'm partially on board at the moment. I was interested in the...
  14. It is not Ranchero. It is Ford Fathom™. $28,350 Starting Price

    As I posted in the MTC forum, I need a truck to do Home Depot truck things, not super duty truck things. Mavericks works perfectly for that use case and I suspect the Fathom will as well.
  15. It is not Ranchero. It is Ford Fathom™. $28,350 Starting Price

    I went through the trouble of copying my MTC account just to laugh at your post! So good.
